Newb question about wrapping text around a box

I've very recently started learning CSS; I've googled this topic but don't seem to have found an explanation that can penetrate my thick skull.

All I'm trying to do is to get some text to wrap around a box that also happens to be in a box.

Here's the html page I'm working with: http://homepage.mac.com/ccfinder/mov...s/gruson3.html

I'm trying the get the text "some content" to wrap around the Yellow Box.

I tried placing my "yellow box" div inside my "maincontent" div as suggested somewhere, but that didn't help me accomplish what I was after.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
